Considering that you believe anyone not posting from a CFC character who disagreeing with you you decide is actually secretly in the CFC (even members of the CSM!), we'll have to agree to disagree on that one too.

Using a weapon as a deterrent in a diplomatic situation is only viable when you have proven that you have deployed it in the past and are willing to use it in the future.

"Rumor threads and posts which are based off no actual information and are designed to either troll or annoy other users will be locked and removed. Players who engage in these type of threads can expect to receive a warning and ban."

Jade, I think you should stop posting. I wouldn't want you to get banned for accusing the entire CSM of being CFC alts, or for repeatedly posting unfounded rumors of a conspiracy between Goonswarm and CCP to enact the 1.1 war system changes.

For what it's worth, the advice I gave Issler above would work very well for you as well - simply split your alliance into many small corporations, whereupon it will become prohibitively expensive to wardec you, and every wardec you receive can be returned four-fold for the low price of a flat 70 million ISK. You could even revive La Maison as an altcorp!

Quoting this in the vain hope that the rules that apply to everyone else, will also be applied to the rantings of Jade Constantine.

Have you considered how paranoid you sound?

Dear ISD:

when I post "we know goons batphoned CCP because they were scared, and we know they were scared because they batphoned ccp", I am not spreading rumors: I am rephrasing Jade's rumormongering to make clear that he is using circular reasoning. Nobody is intended to believe that statement, it is intended to be so absurd on its face nobody believes it.

Sincerely,
Weaselior

However, if you wish to edit out rumors, might I suggest the posts I am paraphrasing.

Lucky I'm not doing those things really. So please stop trying to leverage forum rules to silence dissenting opinions. At some level you need to accept that other players have differing outlooks on the game and to be prepared to discuss these things without continual recourse to personal attacks and slander.

That would be my advise to Goonswarm as well. If you split up your alliance you could be protected from the consequence of high sec raiding corp dogpile without needing to advocate a complete nerfing of the defensive ally system.

Not empty quoting.

I have to wonder if the ISD guy even noticed that the poster was FROM Goonswarm?

I simply don't want you banned - reading these posts is a good way to kill time between wars, though we might be a bit too busy for this all soon. I'm not sure what you're implying by personal attacks and slander - slander would imply I'm lying, and personal attacks would imply I'm saying something bad about you. I mean to do neither.

Why would we need to do that?

But not you, you're just always right.

Dissenters with you are all just CFC alts, according to yourself.

And you CONTINUE to assume we care. Please continue to use straw man arguments.

Using a weapon as a deterrent in a diplomatic situation is only viable when you have proven that you have deployed it in the past and are willing to use it in the future.

Well tbh there aren't - and certainly not in this thread.

I have been debating with goonswarm/CFC coalition people almost exclusively and the one or two without those tags (or posting in an NPC corp like some of your number) have generally been happy to be identified on the CFC side of the argument.

Most notably - nobody from a hisec wardec corp has posted on your side of the argument. So you are in the position of supporting a nerf to a game system that impacts hisec (while claiming it does nothing to you) and thats dog-in-the-mangerism in its purest form.
